The leading work in the field of EU competition law, now in its ninth edition, Bellamy & Child provides a complete guide for legal practitioners and professionals in a single comprehensive volume.

The work provides an in-depth commentary on the sources and practical application of EU competition law by bringing together leading practitioners, academics, and experts in the field. These experienced voices offer practical commentary on competition law and policy in the EU, with chapters examining market power, horizontal co-operation agreements, vertical agreements affecting distribution and supply, intellectual property rights, the digital markets act, as well as the rules and acts required for member states to follow. Thorough footnoting and referencing informs the reader of the law as it relates to the relevant authority.

The ninth edition has been fully updated to account for recent Commission decisional practice, case law of the EU courts, updated regulations and guidance, and current policy debates. There is a new chapter relating to the introdution of the Digital Markets Act, as well as analysis of the rapidly developing law governing, and policy towards, abuse of dominance and merger control. It is an essential resource for any practitioner or professional in the field of EU competition law.
